A1 Expression خنثی

C'è qualcuno?

Is there anyone here?

معنی

Checking if anyone is present.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Calling out when entering a shop is expected. Silence can be interpreted as being sneaky or rude. In smaller villages, doors are often left open. 'C'è qualcuno?' acts as a verbal doorbell. In modern offices, this is replaced by 'È permesso?' (Is it permitted/May I come in?) when entering a specific room. On WhatsApp or Telegram, sending 'C'è qualcuno?' in a group chat is a way to see who is online and ready to chat.

💡

The 'Scusi' Buffer

Always add 'Scusi' (Excuse me) before the phrase in shops to sound extra polite.

⚠️

Don't over-pronounce the 'i'

It's 'C'è', not 'Ci è'. The 'i' is completely gone.
